Alpecin don't seem to be contributing to the chase, they're sprinting for Merlier.

 

[Lequack]

UAE are trying to make the stage hard, it's more hilly than the profile shows

 

[Lequack]

50km to, break has a 1 minute gap.

 

[Lequack]

That uncategorized climb was cruel, not sure how many sprinters will be left in the end.

 

[Lequack]

Bahrain rally splitting the peloton again.

Majka in leaders jersey, as expected. Pogacar wearing the mountain jersey I think.

With his girlfriend

Urska is preparing for the Tour De Suisse which begins on saturday.

 

[Samamba]

So Groenewegen can't loose this now right?

 

[Lequack]

Apparently Groenewegen in the lead group, but not Merlier. Where is Ackermann?

6 Uae in group 1

 

[Didinho]

Ackermann also there

 

[Lequack]

Merlier now 2 minutes behind.

 

[Samamba]

I have no idea what Bahrain is doing tbh.

 

[Lequack]

You would think Alpecin guys would drop back to help Merlier.

 

[Samamba]

Ok someone tell me why Bahrain is riding for Groenewegen here?

 

[Lequack]

I think Mohoric just wants to go fast.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Can someone tell Bahrain they don't have a sprinter here?

 

[Samamba]

BEX is there with 6 guys and they don't need to do anything cause Bahrain is just riding for no reason at all. Awesome, going to be an exciting sprint.

 

[Lequack]

Bahrain in full chat mode.

 

[Lequack]

Merlier group is possibly catching the lead group.
Meanwhile two Alpecin guy still in the front group for some reason.

 

[Red Rick]

Tour of Slovenia is where Groenewegen makes sprints reduced to like 30 riders

 

[Didinho]

Easy one

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Messy sprint but Groenewegen easily the quickest.

Tbf a lot of people will have been hanging around the back not expecting the peloton to split up the little hill.
